They need to remove the entitlements (deductions and credits) that require the current tax rates to be so high. The complexity of the tax code is not in the rate schedule, and never really was.

<<I think you know that current reluctance to repealing the marriage penalty tax by Democrats in Congress is rooted in a debate over estate tax>> Democrats ought to look at it strictly on its merits of fairness and pro-family (most, although not all married people have families). Why the hell should married people be unfairly taxed...maybe it's because the D's think they make more money and are wealthy? Ya know they got two incomes after all. So when the D's talk about being pro-family and for fairness, watch what they do, not what they say.
